All images aside from Featured Deals section are compressed/blurry

Like the title says, the images used in the thumbnails for the Featured Deals are crisp and clear as all thumbnails used to be. And just today i've noticed all thumbnails that are not Featured Deals (like the frontpage deals) are all compressed and low-res.

Thanks for taking the time to report this issue.
Something that worked for me when I was testing this, is if I switched from Grid to List and then back to Grid, then the images would show nicely until I refreshed. So while it's definitely not the best workaround, hopefully it at least makes the site viewable until the team can look into this.

Thanks for the report.

The good news is that this is a known issue and it's been ticketed, but unfortunately I don't have an estimate for a fix.

I merged your thread into an existing one so you can follow for any future updates.

In the meantime you may wish to try this tip from emceep:

The top "featured deals" is remains Ok, but starting a few days ago the "frontpage slickdeals" icons are low resolution.

Noticed it a few days ago.

Good, so I can cancel my ophthalmology appointment. Thought my eyes had gotten worse.
